Q: tom lawrence wrote cavity when i take the filter back out. what do you think about having to bleed the lines leading to the injectors. i always had to do that on an old ford 2600 tractor i had no the 03 and up engines use electrically-actuated injectors as opposed to hydraulically-actuated in the older models and your ford tractor. air in the lines isnt a problem - it will just blow out the injectors when they open up. this is what makes the new engines self-bleeding. changing the filter. i might be near my wits end but it wont do any good to give up. once you can get the lift pump putting fuel into the filter canister you should be home free. well its 25 deg. on the upward direction @ 0800 going for the upper 40s my normal body redline is 50 deg but this is an ewo emergency way operation condition so ill brave it as it passes lets say 35 deg. i have slept on it and decided to be a little more optimistic about it and not disconnect the feed line again. but go directly to the filter and remove it see if the lift pump will draw fuel with a little air pressure in the tank. with the experience that i have had in the past with liquid pumps they are not good at pumping air and will work much more efficient with liquid. so i think the name of the game is to get liquid to the pump in what ever manner i can. what do you think just my .02. running that lift pump dry is apt to trash it. any way you can get heat to the lines like a flood light bulb under the tank hair dryer to the lines the heated fuel i doubt will work it has to radiate too far but at this stage anything i suppose will help. roy bill p. 2004 2500 slt quad cab dodge ram swb 2wd 5.9 ho turbo diesel 48re auto trans anti-spin dif. rhino liner husky 16k. voyager controller 2005 27rl wildcat dt/pc wi-fi. just me and dog .
